"Smack!"

Zhu Shaoxuan broke a teacup again, as if this was the only way to calm his anger a little. He already knew what had just happened, Xie Heng was arrested, and another general had been lost in his camp.

After taking several deep breaths, his anger subsided slightly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Li Xiuwen, I want you to die!" There is no place to die! ”

Li Xiuwen only came back from Yang's house at dusk. After he came back, he learned about this major event that happened in Kaifeng City.

This result was expected by him, and he was originally calculating Xie Heng. The reactions of all parties are basically under his control. But what made him a little puzzling was why this imperial historian was so eager to do it, could it be Zhu Shaoxuan's abnormal move, and the court didn't pay attention to it?

Thinking about it carefully, Li Xiuwen felt that it was impossible. If the imperial court didn't care about this matter, why did it send a messenger? But this imperial historian has only been here for two days, and he has done Xie Heng, could it be that he deliberately ignored Zhu Shaoxuan, and this time he just took Xie Heng to hand over the errand, and he didn't plan to continue to investigate?

"He won't let Zhu Shaoxuan bribe, right?"

Li Xiuwen couldn't help but have such a guess, but the information he got told him that it was impossible. Because Cheng Liangjun is known as "Iron-faced Cheng Gong", he is a relatively decent official. If even he is so corrupt, then the Ming court will really have no one to use.

couldn't guess why, and Li Xiuwen simply stopped thinking about it. Anyway, this time Xie Heng falls, he can achieve his goal and rescue Wang Wu. Now that Kaifeng's general judgment is gone, Wang Wu's case will naturally be taken over by Zhao Tuiguan. In this matter, he will definitely help himself out.

He never thought that by bringing down Xie Heng, he would be able to find out Zhu Shaoxuan, which would be too greedy.

Back at home, Li Xiuwen was just about to rest for a while, but he heard a report from the maid that his father wanted to see him. Li Xiuwen walked to Li Hongshen's study.

"What's the matter with the father?"

As soon as he entered the study, Li Xiuwen asked. He knew Li Hongshen's temperament, and if he didn't have something important, he wouldn't look for him.

"Sit down!"

Li Hongshen just asked him to sit down, and did not rush to speak.

Li Xiuwen sat down as he said, but when he looked up, he saw Li Hongshen's eyes looking at him. He was a little puzzled, and when he was about to ask again, he heard Li Hongshen say, "What have you been busy with lately?" ”

Li Xiuwen pondered for a while before replying: "It's all about our family's business, and it's also about dealing with the palace." ”

Li Hongshen nodded before continuing: "I heard that you have a lot of manpower? ”

"Well...... this"

Li Xiuwen was shocked when he heard this, and his heart still couldn't hide it. But think about it, the money manager is his confidant, and the things he does are not very secretive. After all, now that he is raising his own funds, they are all spent from the Li family's account, how could he not know anything about it?

"It's true!"

After pondering for a while, Li Xiuwen replied: "Dad! You also know that the prince wants to be unfavorable to our Li family, if we don't raise some people to find out the news, I'm afraid he will swallow the bones and scum left! ”

"But I've heard that you seem to have a lot of subordinates!"

Li Hongshen's eyes looked into his eyes and continued to ask: "If you want to inquire about the news, although there are not many people you arranged before, they are enough. But why did you recruit some more people yesterday, and what are you going to do? ”

"Father must also know that only a thousand days to be a thief, how can there be a reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days?"

Li Xiuwen's eyes were calm, he knew that he couldn't show a trace of panic, otherwise he would be very likely to be recognized by his father. He had already thought of the wording to deal with it just now, and then said slowly: "We are now suppressed by the palace, and the crisis has never been resolved. That's why the child thought about making more plans. ”

Li Hongshen never left his eyes when he spoke, but he couldn't see anything unusual about him. After he finished speaking, he looked away and muttered for a long time before he said loudly: "Xiu Wenyi! Don't blame your father for being too careful, since I will hand over all the affairs to you, I won't interfere too much. It's just that you're still young, and you may be acting inappropriately. Dad just wants to warn you, take the right path! ”

"Daddy, the kid knows!" Li Xiuwen nodded in agreement.

Li Xiuwen confessed his father's meaning, for his father, his behavior was already a little out of line, if he let him know his intentions, I am afraid that he would immediately stop him and prevent himself from continuing to "go astray".

But he also knew that Li Hongshen was really concerned about him, so he would admonish him. You can't say that he is wrong, he is just limited in his thinking, in this era of "everything is inferior, only reading is high", he, like most fathers, recognized that if you want to get ahead, you must study, and take the road of the imperial examination is the right way.

No matter what era it is, parents have high expectations for their children. They want their son to become a dragon, but when you want to let go of your hands and feet, they tie your hands and feet out of concern. Their intentions were good, but they were using the wrong methods.

Li Xiuwen knew what his father didn't know, and he couldn't let his father know. So, he could only do it silently, what he thought should be done. As for whether there will be results and whether it will succeed, he doesn't know. History is made by people, and since he has this opportunity, he will not give up easily.

Coming out of Li Hongshen's study, Li Xiuwen went straight back to his small courtyard. As soon as he sat down on the rattan chair in the small courtyard, he saw a subordinate running to report that a guest had come to the door and wanted to see him.

"Who is it?" Li Xiuwen asked.

"He didn't say it." The man replied.

"Bring him to my study!"

Li Xiuwen gave him an order, then got up and went to the study to wait. The man came to ask for a meeting, but he didn't declare his identity, so there must have been something more secret.

After a short time, the servant led a man to the study.

It was a serious-looking man, who looked less than thirty years old, with a non-smiling face and a cool look. But Li Xiuwen could feel that this person seemed to have some origins. Because he sensed a dangerous aura from the other party's body, although the other party deliberately restrained this aura, he couldn't hide it from him.

At the same time that Li Xiuwen was looking at him, he was also looking at Li Xiuwen. He had checked Li Xiuwen's details before, and when he heard that this weak scholar was skilled, he was a little disdainful, how clever can a scholar be? But when he found out about the battle of Zhu Xianzhen, Li Xiuwen slaughtered a group of black-clothed people who intercepted him with his own strength. Then, under the fire of ten thousand arrows, he faked his death and left, he was a little surprised.

Then he found out some news one after another, and when he found out that it took less than a month for Li Xiuwen to become famous in Kaifeng City, he felt shocked. His instincts told him that this person was not simple, very not simple!

That's why he will come to the door today in person to visit Li Xiuwen.
